The Chickadee: Nature’s Secret Genius Bird-Brain
<p>Chickadees are smarter than their tiny heads might indicate. The round little genus of birds has long been a delight for birders, but, more recently, they’ve become a fascinating study species for behavioral scientists, too!</p>
<p>Previously, I wrote on crow intelligence in <a href="https://medium.com/@oliviadobbs13/crows-arent-bird-brained-7b67e6b263a" rel="noopener">Crows Aren’t Bird-brained</a>, mentioning how crows shine as an example above most other birds — and, indeed, other animals, in their intellect. But, that perspective was admittedly limited and, in actuality, biology is actively discovering that our collective scientific perspective on avian intelligence is also limited!</p>
<p>Chickadee studies around the globe are reshaping the narrative of avian intelligence. Discover why, according to animal research, being called bird-brained might actually be a compliment.</p>
